What were the car brands during the Republic of China period?
1 Answers
During the Republic of China period, the car brands were as follows: Ford Motor: During the Republic of China period, Ford in the United States had just developed the Model T, which became the car with the largest production capacity at the time. Ford's sales in the 1930s accounted for about one-third of the global total car production. Ford's philosophy was to build the cheapest cars, ones that every common person could afford, so Ford became the most common car entering China along with the American consulates. Chevrolet: Chevrolet is one of General Motors' foundational brands. For nearly 100 years, Chevrolet has been GM's largest brand in terms of production. As a result, with merchants and consulate personnel entering China, Chevrolets became increasingly common. Pontiac: In the TV series 'Lurk,' the car that Yu Zecheng used to bribe the station chief with the military police was a Pontiac. Due to its overlapping positioning with Buick and its focus on commercial vehicles, Pontiac was not prioritized by the General Motors group and was discontinued during the 2008 financial crisis. However, in the 1930s, both Pontiac and Buick were considered luxury cars in China. Citroën: In the 1930s, Citroën was the largest car company in Europe, with production capacity almost on par with Chevrolet. Many European government agencies used Citroën cars, so during the Republic of China period, European consulates brought this brand to China.
